lyrics

Once there was a young man
With trouble in his heart
And wrath in his hands
So he took up a sword
And he went down

There he found a dragon red
With fire in its mouth
And horns on its head
So he raised up his sword
And smote that beast down

That wasn't all, he was still filled with rage
So he climbed the white mountain
Encountered the sage
& they fought in the wind
And he threw that sage down

...

Then the young man threw his sword away
And came into town On a midsummer day
And his heart found a lass
And so he knelt down

He took that maiden by the hand
And ask if she would make him a man
And she looked in his eyes
And she took him down

...

Years went by & he awoke
With his bride by his side
And a word in his throat
And before he could speak it
His death took him down

Through the wide world
The old man fell
Until at last he came to a well
And in it was his life
And so he bent down

The man, he tasted every moment he lived
And for every mistake
He asked God to forgive
And then his eyes filled with light
And he no more went down
